1 Adaptive Equipment problem

Failure Date: 11/01/2019

I have owned this vehicle 1 yr and a few months and have had to have the computer system wiped out and the software reinstalled more than 2x due to �problem� dash lights all of the sudden scrolling;road departure mitigation system problem, electric brake system problem, brake hold system problem, tire pressure monitor problem, emissions system problem, electric parking brake problem, power steering system problem, vehicle stability assist problem, hill start assist problem, adaptive cruise control problem, ect. The vehicle was involved in a fender bender in the middle of all this chaos, but the problems started shortly after I bought it in may2019. At one time the computer would clear itself out and I could ride around for a day or two without all these lights flashing. That is no longer the case. These scrolling problem lights occur after I've been driving down the road but now they come on immediately when I turn on the vehicle. Prior to this and months ago, when I was rounding a corner on the freeway all the sudden the brake assist engaged as if I was too close to a vehicle in front of me. It was quite a jolt. The first time this occurred was October/November. 2019. This evening I got my oil changed and the mechanic found gas in my oil; I mentioned a gas odor last winter to the dealership when I took it in for oil change. They basically blew it off. No doubt about it now. In fact I even saved some of the oil that came out of the engine to show my husband when he gets home. I have used two different dealerships thus far because of workmanship issues at the first dealership. Now dealership number two does not even want to touch my vehicle.

2 Adaptive Equipment problem

Failure Date: 08/06/2019

I was accelerating onto a highway when the car suddenly lost acceleration and power, made a high pitched squeal with receipt of the following warnings/alarms: brake system warning, loss of collision avoidance system, electric parking brake problem, road departure mitigation system problem, adaptive cruise control problem, hill assist problem, vehicle stability assist problem, power steering system problem, brake hold problem, emissions system problem to name a few. This is more than troublesome, the guy behind me almost hit me and had to swerve to avoid an accident. More recently I was driving on a highway at night when I lost my headlights and parking lights. In addition the following alarms locked in brake system warning, adaptive cruise control problem, lane keeping assist problem, collision mitigation system problem, road departure system problem, auto high beam system problem. Its one thing to get warnings its another to loose your headlights and parking lights on a busy dark highway. I shudder to think what could have happened. Honda does not know what is happening. How can they sell a $30,000 + vehicle and have safety issues such as these? somebody needs to act quickly before folks are killed.

3 Adaptive Equipment problem

Failure Date: 02/22/2019

My vehicle's warning lights are on for all features, including lane assist, stability, collision mitigation, adaptive cruise control, tire pressure monitoring and many others. These features are currently not working. The first time the issue occurred was immediately upon starting the vehicle. I've taken it to two different dealers three times. The third time, I was told there was a problem with a fuel valve -- part of a Honda "campaign," whatever that means -- and that replacing/repairing the issue could take up to 60 days. I was dismissed from the dealer and told that the issue would not make my car stop working, and that I would be contacted when a part arrived. Meanwhile, my car is idling rough and I smell gas upon starting it.

4 Adaptive Equipment problem

Failure Date: 01/24/2019

My car came to a complete stop once while I was driving in the middle of an intersection and once just on a straight road. This happened twice, and I went flying forward and all my stuff on the seat went flying. There was not a car in front of me. They said it must have been reading something to do this, and it's to protect a possible pedestrian. This is an accident waiting to happen . I called Honda of joliet to put it in my record. Another issue is the vehicle stability lights, the adaptive cruise control, collision mitigation, road departure mitigation, and a brake lights all flash stating there is a problem. These lights just come on while driving. This has happened three times . Once it was snowing. The second and third time the weather was clear. The first time I cleared some of the �driving aides� and the lights went off. I took it to Honda of joliet on 1/25 and they aligned the radar. The lights came back on 1/28 /19 and they said they realigned it again. They had the car for 2 days. The original reason was the sensors are dirty, and in bad weather this can happen. They said a clump of snow could have caused this too. So this car is only good in good weather? the service person said they have had a lot of cars in for this same reason. Another problem was I came out to find my windows down, my sunroof open and my back door open. Car was stationary. Didn't take it in for this and forgot to tell them when I dropped it off on 1/28/19.

5 Adaptive Equipment problem

Failure Date: 10/02/2018

While driving on highway or streets I have several problem lights. Adaptive cruise control problem, collision migration problem, road departure migration system problem, and some drive assist systems cannot operate:radar obstructed. My car has been in for repair 10-12 times for these issues. Dealership has put on a new camera and wiring harness and the lights have come on after. I have been told if it is cloudy,rainy, sunny, lines on the roads aren't dark enough, shadow from another vehicle or bumps may cause this. So if it isn't perfect world, this will happen. The final solution last week was to turn off 2 functions, the lane keep assist and the collision migration. I now have a base line model car because I can't use all the functions I bought the car for. This is very dangerous as I drive i75 each day and �when� this happens,it kicks off the cruise control. Dealership said a new model would not solve this as the 2017,2018,and 2019 have the same electronics along with several different models of cars. Need a permanent fix as I am at the point of retaining a lawyer. Multiple dates of this happening.

6 Adaptive Equipment problem

Failure Date: 10/01/2018

On early oct 2017, automatic braking system applied (slammed) for no apparent reasons at 45 mph. No cars were in front and luckily none was behind. Happened on mid day, clear and sunny day. There were several occasions that brake warning activated while no pending traffic. Went to dealer to checkup and was told "never heard of such issues with this brake issues". It totally did not make sense that the adviser recommended turning off brake sensing feature!? on a separate issue, front adaptive shutter malfunction while was on the highway causing loss of power. System reset itself after pulling off the road shutoff and restart the engine. Dealer said they were not able to replicate this issue and found no faulty problems.

7 Adaptive Equipment problem

Failure Date: 07/05/2018

Complete vehicle system problem messages. Vehicle stability, adaptive cruise control, collision mitigation, road departure mitigation, electrical parking brake, emissions system, brake system, brake hold, power steering, hill start assist, tire pressure monitor problem, power steering system problem. Every one of these systems is displaying a �problem� message as well as brake light is flashing on the dashboard engine light is on brake system light is on steering wheel light is on vehicle stability light is on battery light is on and oil lamp is on. This is about the fifth time this has happened. I have also experienced this while driving. The vehicle will suddenly display all these error messages for no apparent reason. Sometimes the error messages will pop up as soon as you turn the car on other times it happens suddenly while driving. It happens on city streets and on the highway straight away or turning.

8 Adaptive Equipment problem

Failure Date: 05/22/2018

I was driving at about 45mph, and had to stopped in median of road to turn right. All of a sudden my Honda crv 2017 stopped and all dashboard lights started flashing, it started showing all the following problems. 1) brake system problem 2) brake hold system problem 3) airbag system (srs) problem 4) power steering system (eps) problem 5) anti-lock brake system problem 6) vehicle stability assist (vsa) problem 7) hill start assist problem 8) adaptive cruise control problem 9) collision mitigation system problem 10) road departure mitigation system problem 11) auto high-beam problem 12) tire pressure monitor problem 13) all wheel drive system problem 14) lane keeping assist cannot operate 15) seat belt warning on and beeping even though seat belt was being worn. I tried to turn off, and turn on, nothing happened. Exited the vehicle, checked the car. No physical damage. Tried to start 2-3 times more, still no luck. I called the roadside assistance, and towed the car to dealer. Dealer kept the car for 4 hours, and called me that it was low gas issue, and charged me $88. I am sure it was not low gas, and even if it was low gas, car warning should tell its not starting due to low gas. It should not be that all 15 errors start showing on dashboard.

9 Adaptive Equipment problem

Failure Date: 01/01/2018

Adaptive cruise works fine, except when it is unable to identify a stationary vehicle in front at a stop light. This happens when the vehicle is on adaptive cruise set and it fails to identify the stationary vehicle in front of it.
